Doesn't work. "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied." The Cisco servers are not in the domain, and the DCs won't allow communications from outside. If I do a runas with domain credentials, I can make it work, but I was hoping for a more elegant solution. I don't like doing runas with domain pwds in a file somewhere. It's my biggest beef with runas... If I try to do the same to the IP address of our switch, it says "network path not found". You'd think there would be a way to allow a stand-alone server to synch with an external time source...
